Audio for Quicktime

I want to record some sounds for my Mail application with Quicktime and put them in my user>library>sounds so they would have to be something other than movie. Can that be done and if so, how? TIA

QuickTime Control Panel / Audio tab.
Use "Safe mode".
Quit and relaunch QuickTime Player and try again.

  • HT3775 Why doesn't QuickTime play audio for some avi videos?

    Why doesn't QuickTime play audio for some avi videos? Is there a download to help resovle this.
    I am running Mountain Lion, I have also installed flipformac, divx, and vlc. They are working fine.
    Appreciate your answers.

    You can only use QuickTime Player 7 to play that 12 year old format.

  • No audio for clips in my event library since upgrading to iLife '09

    After upgrading to iLife '09, I noticed something odd in the new iMovie. All of my clips (recorded with a Sanyo Xacti HD1A and imported into the previous version of iPhoto DO show up in the event library, but DO NOT play any sound in the event library. If I copy a clip or move it up to the project editor the audio plays there. Does anyone know why I am getting no audio for these clips in the event library or what can be done to correct the issue?
    Thanks,
    -Mike

    Finally got some sound on the clips in my iMovie '09 event library. This is what worked here: I went into the Pictures folder and showed the package contents of the "iPhoto Library". I went into the "Data" folder. I went to a "2008" folder. I located the folder of the first video clip I had for the holiday footage... "Dec 14, 2008". Inside that was a QuickTime file "SANY0001" and a JPEG "SANY0001.jpg". I zipped up the "Dec 14, 2008" folder. I dragged the folder to the trash. I dragged the .zip file out to the desktop.
    I opened iPhoto '09. It showed an event for Dec 14, 2008 with a dashed-line round rectangle where it would have normally shown the first frame of the video clip. I closed iPhoto '09 and opened iMovie '09. It alerted me that it needed to generate a thumbnail for some video, and after about a minute the clip was in my event library and playing audio. Not only that... ALL clips in my event library now are playing audio. I quit iMovie '09 and went back into the "iPhoto Library". A new "Dec 14, 2008" folder was there with a new "SANY0001" QuickTime file (I wonder where it got this file from... hidden cache or backup somewhere?). I expanded the .zip on the desktop and dragged the original JPEG file from it to the new "Dec 14, 2008" folder.
    I opened iPhoto '09 again. Now the thumbnail (obviously the JPEG file) displays fine.
    Double checked iMovie '09... Yep, still playing the audio in ALL the clips in the event library.
    I'm not really sure why this worked the way it did. The time it took to generate the new thumbnail was ONLY for the one clip... so it seems rather odd that all the subsequent clips in the event library started to work. Perhaps I just got lucky and it is only that first clip that was throwing everything else off in the thumbnails... or maybe iMovie just looks at the first clip in the event library to determine if it is playing sound or not for all of them?
    Another oddity? The original SANY0001 file is "17.2 MB". The new one, which appears to be exactly the same in quality, is "10.8 MB". The "More Info" section reveals a bit more that might be of interest. The original is Codecs: Photo - JPEG, Integer (Big Endian). The new one is Codecs: Photo - JPEG, Integer (Little Endian). Total bit rate in the original is 2,570. In the new one it is 1,605.
    Ah well. It works!!! Now I can finally have some fun exploring the new features of iMovie '09

  • Crash 0::42 when Exporting Audio with Quicktime:

    Hello Folks,
    We're having an issue with exporting .mov files from After Effects.  When a user tries rendering a project through Make Movie > Ouput Module > Quicktime Movie, AE crashes with the error code 0::42 if the user simply clicks the 'Format Options' button for Audio output.  In addition, if the user selects File > Export > Quicktime Movie, the movie will get about half way done and crash with the same error.
    This error occurs on all of our workstations.  We are using CS4 and HP workstations of various makes and models, the only direct similarity is they all use Realtek built in audio.  I have done some troubleshooting using procmon.exe and the issue that seems to be coming up points to a conflict with our audio driver and Quicktime (see the following regesty entries below)
    The following kept coming up with a BUFFER OVERFLOW and NAME NOT FOUND results:
    HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Hardware Profiles\0001\System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_10EC&DEV_0262&SUBSYS_103C 130A&REV_1002\4&705ED8E&0&0001\DirectSound\Device Presence
    HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32
    Also, both registry entries point to the file
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe After Effects CS4\Support Files\(Media Core plug-ins)\Common\AsioWdm.dll
    Does AsioWdm.dll have some conflict with our HD Realtek audio and quicktime?
    I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Sound card drivers / codecs.  This actually allowed me to export Quicktime movies without crashing via File > Export.  However, we're still experiencing the crash when clicking on 'Format Options' from Make Movie > Output Module > Format Options.
    Does anyone have any idea what's causing / how to resolve our issue?
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Ben

    Hello again,
    Thank you for your responses, here is an update on our status:
    I am testing a simple scene with a .wav file.  AE only crashes when we're using the Quicktime module and if we click on Format Options in the audio settings.  All other modules seem to work just fine.  Interestingly, if we choose File > Export > Quicktime Movie, we can access the audio compression options and AE does not crash.
    In regards to ASIO, as far as I know, we are not interfacing with anything else.  The workstations we're using have built-in speakers, but I don't see how that could be an issue and nothing else is plugged in.
    As for the codecs, we have the k-lite package installed as well as DivX, Xvid and whatever comes with the Realtek drivers.  I tried uninstalling k-lite and xvid, but neither seemed to help.
    Other things I have tried:
    - Uninstalled and reinstalled AE
    - Updated Quicktime to the newest version
    - Uninstalled and reinstalled Quicktime to version 7.65
    - Disabled openGL support
    NOTE: we recently tried this on one of our workstations (z600) with windows 7 64 bit and we got the same issue.
    No matter what we do, AE still crashes when we have the Quicktime format selected and click the Format Options Button for the audio settings.
    Any other ideas?

  • .VOB for Quicktime X in Snow Leopard

    In Leopard I purchased the MPEG 2 and Pro upgrades for Quicktime. This allowed me to open files from DVD with the extension .VOB. I could play the file (with no audio) and that is all I wanted. I can longer do this with the new Quicktime in Snow Leopard. How can Apple overlook something like this? Any help?
    Mike

    I went to the apple store and find that I would have to pay for the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component. You suggested there is a place to download it.
    If we don't have the component in our Utility folder (I don't) that means I must purchase?

  • No Audio In QuickTime File After Tape Capture

    I have been using Premiere CS6 to capture some old tapes through a Matrox MXO2 unit.  The video and audio is playable through Premiere but isn’t available in other applications, particularly Quicktime Player.  Quicktime shows that the format is 24 bit integer (Little Endian), but no audio plays outside Premiere or after converting to other formats in Adobe Media Encoder.  The video is fine regardless of whatever codec I use to capture (tried Prores, DV and Uncompressed), but no audio is usable outside Premiere.
    This is the error message I get when I try to open a captured file outside Premiere.
    “Additional software is required for QuickTime to playback this media.  It may be available from the QuickTime Components page”
    I’ve been in contact with Matrox tech support and they have no answers.  I’ve posted Apple’s Quicktime forum and had no feedback.  I’m just wondering at this point if any Premiere users have run into issues like this capturing from tape sources.

    Exporting these files to other formats like H.264 also creates a file without playable audio. 
    Having access to the files in a common format like Quicktime is essential to this project as they will be accessed later by people who don't have access to Premiere. 
    I have captured through Matrox's very inadequate basic capture tool and gotten files with sound, but cannot use that application because it lacks device control, batch capturing capability and timecode support.  It made me wonder if the problem is somewhere in Premiere's side of the capture process.

  • AC3 Audio in QuickTime

    I have one question. It is a very simple question. But first, an intro: I have done a huge amount of research into this, and I am absolutely sick of it, because I have found no solution. All I want to do is convert AC3 Audio into AAC format with QuickTime, but of all the apparent solutions I have found, none of them seem to work. I have a work-around for this (first convert to wav with other software), but I'd prefer to keep it in one step because when I convert it to wav, the channel information is discarded.
    So, here goes - *is it possible, by any means whatsoever, to play AC3 audio in QuickTime?*
    At the moment my only option seems to be that I buy a mac and install Perian.
    Message was edited by: LonestarOrison

    Actually, never mind. I found a solution. There's a program called eac3to which can split ac3 files into six separate WAVs, one for each channel, which you can then merge in QuickTime and export as a 5.1 channel AAC file.

  • Trouble connecting audio for mpeg 2 upload

    I am new to compressor but not to FCP. Have been searching the forum and reading but not getting it. My client wants me to upload a :60 to his FTP in MPEG-2. I understand that the audio file is separate when creating mpeg-2. How do I connect them and make a file to upload?
    Thanks
    FCP-5; Compressor 2

    Compressor 2.x.x and earlier can only make MPEG-2 Transport Streams, not Program Streams. You need Compressor 3 or later to be able to make Program Streams using Compressor. But with a little help of a great application called MPEG Streamclip, you can easily make MPEG-2 Program Streams.
    Encode your video and audio using Compressor. For audio, choose AIFF, and make sure it gets the same name as the .m2v, but of course with the right .aif suffix.
    Open the .m2v file in MPEG Streamclip (the audio should automaticly load with the video file if they have the same file name). Choose the file menu and choose Covnvert To MPEG or Covnvert To MPEG Using MP2 Audio, depending on what your client wants. Ask them.
    Keep in mind that when opening the .mpeg with PCM audio in QuickTime Player, you can not hear any audio. To check if the PCM audio really was included, open the .mpeg file in MPEG Streamclip and listen there. The .mpeg file with MP2 audio should play the audio in both QuickTime Player and MPEG Streamclip.
    Good luck!

  • Recording audio for a short film ideas.

    Im gonna record the audio for a shortfilm in a month and im looking for options for doing this, i want to record directly into my hard drive and i thougth to use garageband 08 for that, but its important that in the postproduction everything syncs perfectly (audio and video) so i was wondering if logic or garageband recorded sound at 29.97 fps, or any software from apple, i have quicktime pro and logic studio (but im very new in logic so thats why i was thinking to use something much more simple like garageband or qucktime).
    im gonna use the Usb8 from alesis to record the audio to the computer.
    Any ideas please??
    thanks a lot.

    use garage band, use Logic, or whatever you like. As long as you're recording audio separately from the video, you'll need to sync it later. recording to the camera eliminates this step (ideally) by syncing the video/audio on the fly.
    There is a more complicated and accurate way of doing this, but it sounds like this might work for you:
    If you're gonna use your computer to record, make sure you slate each take. Use one of those fancy-pants clacker-slates just like the big hollywood directors. Snap it before each take and use that for sync.

  • Mpeg2 DVD VOBs Video and Audio into QuickTime ?

    How can I read the mpeg2 VOB files from some DVD that we created into QuickTime Pro with the MPEG2 playback component ?
    We have an app that does video and audio processing built on QuickTime. After the processing is done the result is written to an mp4 file using QuickTime export. We now have to be able to read DVDs that we create into this app (QuickTime), and after processing we must se the QuickTime export option to create the mp4 file. These are not commercial DVDs and are not copy protected. I'd like to just be able to read the mpeg2 video and audio directly into QuickTime but I haven't yet found a good way to do this. Here is what I have tried:
    1) I can read individual VOB files with QuickTime, but I don't get any audio and I need all the VOB files as one.
    2) I have used MPEG Streamclip to open the DVD VOB files and exported the demuxed mpeg2 video and aiff audio. Both files open together in QuickTime but since the total size of the video is over 4 GB the video and audio are off and drift more so throughout the video.
    3) I used libdvdread to read the DVD and create a single MPEG2 file. This can be read by QuickTime but I don't get any audio. From what I understand this is muxed video and audio which QuickTime doesn't understand, but is playable by VLC.
    I think I could probably ulibdvdread to read the VOB files into a muxed MPEG2 file, then use ffmpeg to convert this to a very large DV stream, then import that into QuickTime, but there has to be a better way than to do the lengthly and large file size conversion to DV which is not a format I ultimately want.
    Before we go and write our own, I'm looking for a simple way to read the mpeg2 video and audio from a DVD format directly into QuickTime and preferably something that can be integrated into our app and not use another commercial stand alone app.

    OK, I can't tell you what we are doing, you'll have to trust me that it's for a very good cause. I'll simplify the use case as an example. If I can do the following we'll be OK:
    1) Read video/audo files from a DVD that we created
    2) Open these files with the QuickTime Player, click on Export to Apple TV to create an output file.
    I'd rather not do an interim conversion of the video data (like use a 3rd party app to convert to mp4 first and then read into QT, but I'm considering a conversion to DV) because that could seriously hurt the apps effectiveness. I also can't use another app (MPEG Streamclip, HandBrake, VisualHub, etc.) to do the conversion.

  • Exporting audio for transcription

    Hi.
    Has anyone using FCP ever exported audio for a transcription service using only the program's audio on one channel and timecode on the other? Can this be done with the AVI or WAV format. MP3 audio would be ideal but it's not an export option from FCP. Is a plug-in or another program needed for this?

    I Googled "LTC out from final cut pro". There are some expensive add on boxes that might do this, but it does not seem to be possible within the FCP toolset.
    Might I ask why you need this? Maybe folks here can come up with some kind of workaround solution.
    I have made Umatics in the past with LTC on an audio track for dubbing studios, but that was way back in the 80s. Thought I had seen the last of it.
    What about a viz TC on a very small QuickTime video - is that a possibility?

  • Windows AVI hd files with 4 channels of audio with quicktime PRO ?????

    I wish to convert Windows AVI hd files with 4 channels of adio to Quicktime mov, retaining the four tracks of audio, will quicktime pro do this

    It depends on what the audio and video codecs used in the video. AVI is just a container format and make use any number of codecs, some of which QuickTime for Windows can support but many it cannot. If you can post information on the codecs, someone here can probably give more direct advice.
    Regards.

  • No Audio in Quicktime Movie taken from Camera

    I have a Pentax OptioS6 and used its video capture mode. When I viewed the movie, it opened QuickTime, and then I received a message that software was missing, and was directed to the QuickTime Components web site, with several third-party components. I am not sure which one to install. Does anyone know how I should handle this issue. Without installing any software, there is no audio for the movie. In order to get audio do I have to install one of the third-party components? I already have DivX. So if this is the proper component to allow me to watch the movie with sound, do I simply use that program to open the movie?
    Thanks in advance.
    Russell

    MPEG, Mono, 32.000 kHz is your audio and MPEG is the codec. Trouble is that doesn't tell me enough.
    QuickTime can play MPEG-1 files but yours isn't because it shows DivX as the video codec. Normal MPEG-1 files are muxed (single codec and file) and your file shows two codecs.
    Try playing and converting the file with MPEG Streamclip (free). It can export to QuickTime formats.

  • USB input, recording audio into Quicktime (snow lep) becomes a .Mov prob..

    Hello,
    I am using a USB interface that (similar to iMIC) input and the sound comes in fine, records fine, plays in itunes (drag and drop into it)... but it will NOT play on iphone!
    How do I change the ".mov" format of quicktime to be whatever the ipod likes?
    I am clicking "record new audio" in the file dropdown of QT, but it automatically does it as a .mov anyway.
    Help? thanks

    You need to convert the video to a format that the iPhone understands. Here is an Apple tutorial on how to covert a video for the iPod. Instead of picking the iPod format from the drop down menu you pick the iPhone.
    This only works if you brought Quicktime Pro. You can Buy Quicktime Pro From the Apple store. If you do decide to buy Quicktime Pro you need to also have Quicktime 7 installed. If you don't have Quicktime 7 already installed in your Utilities folder here is how you can install it:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3678
    At this time there is no Quicktime Pro for Quicktime X, only for Quicktime 7.
    (Open up iTunes and look under the Advance tab and see if there is a conversion for the iPhone. If so, you can also convert videos using iTunes. You might need Quicktime Pro to be able to do the conversion in iTunes.)
